Calendar

PRE-ORDER THE CALENDAR HERE!Â It’s here, finally! Photo 12, the month of December, the Ending: Christopher Paolini as Death! There are a few reasons why I saved Christopher’s photo for last. He’s Death. He’s December. He’s the last photo I shot, ironically. He was also the first author I asked to be a part of […]

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN! In honor of the pre-order happening over at Worldbuilders, I present to you the Ringmaster for this calendar, Patrick Rothfuss! There’s a lot of story to go with this photo. First off, Pat is one of the good people. Worldbuilders, the non-profit he started a few years ago, is amazing. When I […]

PRE-ORDER THE CALENDAR HERE!Â Today’s reveal is Lauren Kate looking stunning as the Owl Spirit: This is an interesting photo for many reasons. I knew I wanted owls in the calendar, and luckily Lauren thought this was a great idea. This photo also has my favorite costume from all of the images. It was also […]

PRE-ORDER THE CALENDAR HERE!Â Next up on the reveal list is the lovely Cassandra Clare as Autumn! From the start of this project I wanted to do an autumn photo with a redhead. I only had a few slots left, with no redheads on board, and was running out of hope, when Holly Black said, […]

PRE-ORDER THE CALENDAR HERE! I’m so exited to release today my three-authors-in-one photo: Tessa Gratton, Brenna Yovanoff, and Maggie Stiefvater (from left to right) as The Fates! I love every photo in this calendar, and I’m extremely proud of each. But I think this might be my favorite, because of the energy of having three […]

PRE-ORDER THE CALENDAR HERE!Â Today I’m bringing you the photo that was the most fun to shoot: Tad Williams as the Weather Mage! When initially coming up with the themes for the different photos, I started throwing around ideas relating to elemental magic. When weather mage popped into my head I immediately knew I had […]

To go with the release of the pre-order I was asked to talk about this project from my point of view, and reflect on it now that I’m finished. There are a million things to say, and a million ways to start this post. But overall I think the perfect one is this: This has […]

PRE-ORDER THE CALENDAR HERE! This image reveal gets us half-way there! Today I’m presenting to you the gorgeous Holly Black: How pretty is Holly Black? I won’t lie, she’s probably the gal I was most excited to shoot for her basic look. I think she’s stunning, and I was thrilled to be able to get […]

PRE-ORDER THE CALENDAR HERE!Â Today I’m releasing one of the more evocative photos from the calendar shoot: Brandon Sanderson as Father Earth! Salt Lake City, UT has a high concentration of authors, and I had an idea to do something at the Bonneville Salt Flats even before I had the authors on board. I […]

PRE-ORDER THE CALENDAR HERE!ÃÂ I got buried under the work and travel of shooting the last three images, so I’m a bit delayed on this, but without further ado, here’s Gail Carriger as the evil witch queen! First off, if you haven’t read Gail’s amazing, hilarious steampunk novels, run right now to the store/library and […]

PRE-ORDER THE CALENDAR HERE!Â Photo number three is my steampunk one, a la Gregory Maguire of WickedÂ fame: This photo evolved a lot. The initial idea was a clockwork librarian, sitting dusty and disused in the corner of some books somewhere. But to make it authentic I needed old books. I contacted the Boston Library, but […]

PRE-ORDER THE CALENDAR HERE!ÃÂ Hey peeps, time for photo number 2: Brandon Mull in ‘Dragons for Sale’: I was so excited to have Brandon for this project, as hisÃÂ FablehavenÃÂ series is one of my all-time favorites. The gypsy salesman idea came to mind with Brandon’s friendly, all-american face. I was like yeah, most people would buy […]

PRE-ORDER THE CALENDAR HERE! Heya! I thought I’d kick the photo reveals off with one of the most dynamic of the photos. Without further ado, here’s is Lauren Oliver’s calendar image! Ironically, this was the very first image I shot for the calendar. Seriously could I have had a more amazing model to start with? […]
